VAT and the Public Sector: Reform to VAT Refund Rules

Source gov.uk

  • On 27 August 2020, HM Treasury issued a policy paper to modify Section 41 of the UK VAT Act (1994) regarding the VAT refund scheme, considering it to be “unduly complex, administratively burdensome and a barrier to effective financial planning”.
  • HM Treasury concludes that a full refund of the VAT incurred on the goods and services for non-business activities performed by organizations falling within section 41 is the best solution for this issue (full refund model).
  • Input to HMRC is due Nov 19, 2020
